Adventure awaits...

Oh yes!! It's Sunday and I am up with my post, if you know me u might notice I am usually off the charts on weekends but recently a great friend of mine sent a surprise Valentine gift which had these technique Tuesday stamps. They are so cute that I had to make a card :) I was inspired by CAS-ual Friday's challenge CFC 128 - LONG with a twist to make a farewell card. I loved the team at CAS-ual Friday's and since there term is over here is a card for them :) I was inspired by the colors at Color Q #128. Since this card is quite masculine, I will also link this up to Less is more Week 159 - Masuline and CAS on Sunday #27 Masculine :) So here's my card...

To make this card I stamped the road (using Technique Tuesday - Happyville Cars set) and the car on a separate card stock and fuzzy cut them. The trees (from AC blue skies set) n lamp post ( from Technique Tuesday Happiville - Wheelie set) were stamped on card base size of which is 3.5 X 7.5", then I created the sky with sponging , ink splatters and stamping stars (from My mind's eye - all is bright set) Inks used were Hero arts and as per the Color Q challenge :) Additionally I did some shading on trees using color pencil. Finally I adhere the road and car on card base.

Firstly, I want to congratulate you on your win for the 'Blue Challenge' at CAS-ual Fridays! I thought it was so lovely to see ALL of your cards showcased, and of course now you'll be getting some well deserved goodies for your win! I'm so happy for you, Deepti!

Where to begin on the absolutely adorable scene you created on this card...wow! I love how you popped up the little car (I had one just like it in the 70's), and how you added the trees and streetlights, too ~ So fun! Fabulous color combo,..and is that sentiment handwritten? I love it! Really charming card, my friend!!!

Hi Deepti! Sorry for giving the wrong idea, the term is ending for CAS-ual Fridays, but some of us will be back for the next term too. Really love the scene you created here with so many different elements. The colors you chose give it a feel from the late 1950s, early 1960s. Thanks so much for playing with the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge!

I've been out of touch with the boys here for the long weekend and just had a blast catching up with the posts I've missed! You are always so inspiring, Dee, with so much talent evidenced on every single card you create! Hugs, Darnell
